Between then and WOW!

I look at my blog and think about blogging every day.

Why oh why am I so lazy? I'm not sure, but now there's no room for excuses.

I'm done--Done--DONE with grad school, with my job, and--just to give you a mental picture--I'm currently sitting at the kitchen table in my plush bathrobe without much of an agenda today.

Ah. Yes. It's summer. It's that period between the end of the school year and...oh...wait. That's right. I don't have a plan.

If you would have asked me a year ago what I would be doing right now, I would have said with total confidence that I'd be back in Austin working in publishing. Clearly, plans have changed. I'm beginning to wonder why I ever make plans of any sort.

This last year has been one of the most exciting adventures I could have asked for, but it's left me in limbo, and I'm not exactly comfortable.

I'd just like to know what I'm supposed to be doing!

I know I will find a job. I mean, c'mon. I just started looking. I've got health insurance, and the support of family, friends, and a top-notch boyfriend. What more could I ask for?

Yesterday, I worked out three times, put a dent in my book, and spent the first day of summer as it should be spent: soaking up rays, lounging lakeside with an iced coffee, and dining with one of the best friends I've got.

This is the life.

If I have to scrape by for a bit, so be it. I'm going to enjoy this time as I doubt it'll ever surface again.
